I also have:
dump-file "/var/dump/named_dump.db";
statistics-file "/var/stats/named.stats";

It could be that type slave files need to go in the subdirectory slave
and type master files need to go in the subdirectory master. I have
this:
/*
zone "example.com" {
type slave;
file "slave/example.com";
masters {
192.168.1.1;
};
};
zone "0.168.192.in-addr.arpa" {
type slave;
file "slave/0.168.192.in-addr.arpa";
masters {
192.168.1.1;
};
};
*/
Check you /var/log/messages for errors about this.
